Title: Great aid for a/c drain line
Review: Time will really tell, but this product seems to be doing a great job of keeping the a/c drain line clear. Previously I've had to vacuum my line a minimum of 2X yrly to eliminate clogging, which usually resulted in backup flooding prior to the a/c auto shutting off. Was very easy to install & the smart phone app is very informative on battery useage, scheduled flushing, etc. Was so impressed that I also bought 2 more units, which I gave to my 2 adult daughters for their home a/c units.

Title: Immediate turn off that you have to install app and use proprietary supplies
Review: I've lived in Southeast Florida for 30+ years, so I've had my share of AC drain line issues. So, when I saw this product online, I knew that I had to order. I've seen the commericials for this product on TV and have always been intrigued. The product arrived and is nicely packaged with good instructions. My first concern about this product is that you have to register online with an app. I really don't want to install another app on my phone for something that shouldn't require an app. Why does this product need an app? I have no other home maintenance product that requires an app. If the answer is to adjust how much product is dispersed, then that could be a physical setting on the device.Also a turn off is that depending on the physical set up of your system, that you have to drill into a line to install the product. I really didn't want to drill into a line because what happens if I don't want to continue with the product after the initial supply of drain cleaner. I wish that there was another way to install this product. Finally, the fact that you have to scan replacement supplies with the app to make the product continues working demeaning. It's like the manufacturer doesn't trust you to use OEM supplies. Just for these reasons alone this product is not for me. I'll continue pouring a/c drain line cleaner down the drain and flushing the line when needed. I thought that this was an easy product, but too many hurdles for me to overcome.

Title: Good news and bad news
Review: I'll start with the bad news. Anyone whow knows anything about how IoT apps work will likely not want to install the app for this. The unit is literally non-functional without the app, which is a HUGE red flag to start with. There is absolutely no reason there isn't a timer switch on it to do basic functions without the app. Additionally, the listing does not make it clear that without the app, this thing is completely useless! Deceptive marketing practice...another red flag.GOOD NEWS!!!I busted this thing open and found (as I suspected) an ESP32 chip. I plan to flash ESPHome to it and break it free from the cloud. Thats the only reason I gave 2 stars.

Title: My partner wanted this. Didn't install due to the amount of personal info they need. 3.5 stars.
Review: Being techie's, my partner and I were intrigued by this product. We do own an expensive HVAC system, and the lines can, potentially, become clogged. We asked our HVAC guy and he said it wouldn't hurt - so we proceeded with opening it for installation.The presentation and provided supplies is impressive. The quality looks high, and we were smiling as we started the process. A few Command strips in (I didn't want to permanently place it until we worked out the hoses and fittings), I asked him to start the sign up process, since we have an "intelligent house" and the app with notifications is a huge selling point to us.Where our install process went wrong is the sheer amount of personal info they want. I understand wanting to connect the app to our phone, however my expectations nowadays would be to do this through access to our wifi (and a hub, if necessary). That's not how this works; they want to link your phone + it's number, after sending a text code for you to confirm, and then they want your detailed address.... and what more? I don't know. We stopped there.Because this doesn't connect through a simple wifi connection to our already-smart home, and wants so much information without saying why they need it, nor how they're going to use it, I wouldn't recommend this product for the majority who care about their data. If you're in the minority who don't care, this system is well put together and will likely be for you.... it's your call.ð4 stars for quality & presentation3 stars for connection to the app = 3.5 stars overall

Title: Works well, was easy to setup - app requires a lot of personal info
Review: The product itself, the drain cleaner, I like. I'm not a huge fan of the app and the amount of info it wants/requires to work. I usually install apps like that on an old phone with a burner number anyway, so it's not a huge deal to me. just another hurdle.This was easy to setup for me, as I have an open/accessible pipe that I would normally have to pour the AC line cleaner in to flush it out. This saves the time that takes, which really isn't much time...but more importantly it makes sure I don't forget to do it... actually, it makes it so it doesn't matter that I forget. i just need to refill the fluid occasionally.

Title: It works, just not for me.
Review: Installed this and did use an old phone to get the app. I do not like having to forced into using an app. I feel like this might work for certain people who need everything done for them. But i am pretty handy and know when to add a few ounces of cleaner down my HVAC lines. So, while this is a nice idea, its over engineered for something that can be done simply and fast. The refill are not cheap either, for only a few months. I will let it finish out but doubt that ill buy the refills, unless i can refill it myself with cleaners.
